The fleet retreated to the water village in embarrassment. The Dragon King Gang's Jiujiang branch and the Dongting branch fleet immediately encircled the water village and surrounded it tightly on three sides of the river.
Tongjiang Water Village is a peninsula protruding out of the river. On the other side is a dense jungle. There is a path connecting the water village with the outside. Twenty miles away is a small county town near the river, but at this time the path has been blocked by a group of officers and soldiers.
Yes, they are a group of officers and soldiers, but now they are under the control of the Dragon King Gang and they are surrounded. They probably want to surround them here.
"The response is really fast. I was careless this time. I should have gone back after the clearing was completed. I don't know if General Ye can react and rush for reinforcements."
Ye Chen stood at the head of Shuizhai City, looking at the troops surrounding him on all sides, his face solemn and slightly worried.
It is definitely impossible for an army of nearly a thousand people to escape. The opponent has been encircled and no matter which way they go, it is impossible. But if he alone takes a small number of people to escape, it is possible. If he walks on land, there will be no masters on that side to stop him, and no one can stop him.
You can keep him, but if you leave, everything will be in vain, and you will no longer have this military career.
It's not that he doesn't want to be a captain, but this method is the last resort, and escaping without a fight will greatly affect his reputation. There is no need to think about the hero's name, even if he kills the Dragon King of the Yangtze River, he will not
Yes, at most it's some other title, so he won't run away without a fight unless absolutely necessary.
Besides, it's not that there is no way to survive, if... He looked at the more than 500 potential points on the light screen in front of him, then turned his head to look inside the village, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind.
The enemy was mobilizing troops to attack the stronghold and would not attack in a short time. Ye Chen ordered his adjutant to prepare for defense and turned around to enter the stronghold.
The Dragon King Gang is very ambitious. The Tongjiang Water Village was originally built to accommodate 10,000 people and was very large. There is an area inside which they have now arranged as a prison to hold the Dragon King Gang water bandits who surrendered before.
He was originally planning to take them back to Jiangbei and hand them over to the Jiangnan camp, but when something like this happened, there was nothing he could do. Ye Chen decided to kill all these surrendered soldiers to prevent them from rioting later in the critical battle.
It will involve a lot of their energy, and this situation is almost certain to happen.
Leading a team of soldiers to block the door, Ye Chen entered with a sword in his hand and an indifferent look on his face:
"The war is about to begin. I don't have enough energy to watch over you. For the sake of my soldiers, I can only ask you to go on the road first. I'm sorry."
As soon as the words fell, all the surrendered bandits in the entire detention area stood up, started to get excited, and started making noises, reasoning, swearing, begging for mercy, and so on. But Ye Chen turned a deaf ear and waved coldly.
With a sweep of the sword, a surrender soldier who rushed up covered his neck and fell to the ground dead.
Immediately a soldier raised his arms and shouted:
"Brothers, I have long said that officers and soldiers cannot be trusted, so rush out with me. The brothers outside will definitely respond to us after seeing it. As long as you rush out, you can survive."
"Sure enough, my guess was correct!"
Ye Chen was still a little unbearable at first, but when he saw a large group of people gathered around him as soon as this person said something, he immediately threw away all the coldness in his heart. With a wave of his arm, blood flew up, and he smacked out with his left hand, and there was a "click"
With a crisp sound, one person's entire chest was collapsed, the whole chest was filled with cold air, and his face was extremely pale.
More than 300 people surrendered to the camp, some of whom surrendered directly, and some of whom were captured after fleeing previously.
No matter how many people there were, there was no way they could beat him without weapons in their hands. They had no power to fight back. They fell one by one like mowing grass. In just over ten minutes, no one was left standing in the detention area. Blood flowed into rivers, and the smell of blood rose into the sky.
, even the air seems to be dyed red from a distance.
Ye Chen walked out of the detention area covered in blood, the evil energy on his body almost condensed into substance, and his voice was as cold as ice:
"Burn all the bodies."
It wasn't until he walked far away that the soldier guarding the door shuddered, opened the door and took a look, and vomited on the spot.
"866 potential points should be enough for me to derive a two-star high-grade internal skill and mental technique, or a two-star high-grade sword technique or palm technique. When the battle starts, there will probably be several masters surrounding me, which will increase the chance of survival due to internal strength.
"
Ye Chen ignored the awe-inspiring looks of his men around him, and the thundering drums beating on the river in the distance didn't make him raise his head. The enemy was almost ready to attack.
His eyes fell on the attribute and ability panel, and as he concentrated his attention, his potential points began to decrease, while the thirty-two internal skills and mental techniques on the attribute panel began to increase one by one.
In the Military Hidden Martial Arts Building, he could only see the internal skills and mental skills below one star. Most of them were one-star mid-level or high-level internal skills. Internal skills and mental skills were different from moves. They usually started with one-star middle-level internal skills. It was rare to see one-star low-level internal skills.
.
A one-star middle-grade internal skill is generally five or six levels, and the potential points consumed vary from fifteen to twenty-one points. Every time he practices a skill to perfection, a new internal force will appear in the meridians in his body, and the ten internal skills will increase.
When he reached perfection, ten different internal forces appeared in his body and began to conflict back and forth in his meridians.
Too many different types of internal forces in a person's body will cause conflicts. If they cannot be restrained, they will cause serious damage to the meridians and Dantian. If it were replaced by the previous ten different types of internal forces, Ye Chen's meridians would probably be injured now, but now his Dantian
The internal energy in my body was in my early eighties, which is enough to suppress these scattered small internal forces, so although my body is a little chaotic now, I can still hold on.
Feeling the current situation in his body, Ye Chen gritted his teeth and continued to improve again.
Twelve gates, thirteen gates, fifteen gates, seventeen gates, when all seventeen gates of inner strength and mental skills have been improved to perfection, he knows that he has reached the limit.
But he didn't stop and continued to improve.
Eighteen doors, nineteen doors, twenty doors...
"Snapped!"
There was a sound that only he could hear. He lowered his head, and a crack suddenly exploded in his arm, and blood spurted out like mist.
"continue!"
A hoarse, low sound sounded.
Outside the water village, the rumbling drums sounded again. The fleets of the Dragon King Gang's Dongting Branch and Jiujiang Branch had converged. The leader of this operation was the Dragon King Gang's Zuo Envoy Xiang Zizhen, a two-star intermediate top master.
Fei Bo, the protector of the Dragon King Gang, the Eagle Claw Hand, is a two-star lower-level top expert, plus Tian Kang, the new helmsman of the Dongting Branch, and Song Gaoming, the new helmsman of the Jiujiang Branch, two two-star lower-level top masters, a total of four top masters.
Four people were standing on a building boat. The one on the left, Xiang Zizhen, was an old man with white hair. A rope tied his white hair behind his head. He looked at the water village in front of him with his hands behind his back and sighed:
"The gang leader is very disappointed with your performance. This is the last chance. If you still fail to win the Feixian Sword this time, you should go back to the chief helm to apologize!"
